The 1996 presidential campaign was one of the best campaigns in the history of the United States of America politics. It was a successful campaign, which not only gave Bill Clinton his second term as the president of America, but it thrived through the global hardships of terrorism which threatened the United States of America. There was no repeat of the terrorism experienced in Clinton’s first term, the attack in the World Trade Centre (1993) and the attacks on the US army base in Saudi Arabia.

Finally, the success of a presidential campaign needs to develop comprehensive research in the field of its participation. Research will enable one to understand the basic principles, which govern the way people perceive their idol in the political arena, what is missing and if any change is required, where it should be based on. Therefore, researching and monitoring all the bases of the campaign enables political candidates to focus on the ground bases through research, interviews, data collection, and analyzing of the sorted and available information.
